Some shared-ownership homes are among the properties now available at St Leonard's, a collection of new properties off Portland Road in Hythe.

The properties are built in and around the former Hythe St Leonard's junior school.

As part of the scheme, the old Victorian school building has new life as a number of maisonettes, while architects have got to work creating newly-built homes on other parts of the site.

Homes now available start at £140,000 and include one and two-bedroom flats and a two and three-bedroom maisonette.

Six of the properties are being made available on a shared-ownership basis which would allow a buyer to move into one of the £140,000 one-bedroom flats for £35,000.

The development is close to Hythe town centre and is handy for walks along the seafront.
